Show Notes

Tired of the 3 AM Google searches? This episode dives deep into the "sleep industrial complex" to separate marketing myths from biological reality. We explore how the infant brain develops circadian rhythms, why the "second wind" is actually a chemical stress response, and how temperament dictates whether "drowsy but awake" is a dream or a disaster. From the role of melatonin to the latest safety guidelines on room sharing, we provide a science-backed look at how to navigate the high-stakes world of infant sleep without losing your mind.
